CHBC Re-Gathering
The church is not a building people meet together in, but a people who gather to worship Jesus Christ as Lord.

To read the details of the CHBC Re-Gathering Plan, please visit this link: CHBC Re-Gathering. This will also take you to a link where you can RSVP for one of the two English-speaking services on Sunday. Your RSVP is only for this Sunday, May 17. We will need to RSVP each week for services until we can Re-Gather without restrictions. You can go directly to the RSVP link here: RSVP for CHBC Re-Gathering.

Sunday School
While CHBC is beginning the process of Re-Gathering for worship on Sundays, we also anxiously await the time that small groups can gather inside the building as well. Sunday School is a vital strategy for teaching the Bible, doing outreach, and ministering to one another. Until the time we can re-group for Sunday School, we will continue to give you material and resources for Sunday School in your home with your family, or others whom you want to invite in to join you.

AWANA Awards Drive-Through Ceremony
Wednesday, May 20 from 6-7 PM in the CHBC parking lot. Follow this link to the CHBC Kids Facebook page to learn more about this years AWANA Awards: CHBC AWANA Awards Drive-Through Ceremony.

Prayer
Spend a moment in prayer now thanking God for the incomparable Christ. 

Colossians 1:13-18

13 For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him. 17 He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. 18 He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything.

Quotes from Church History
Charles Spurgeon on Worship: “It is the worship of a child towards a father, feeling within himself a kinship with the divine; it is a worship wrought in us by God the Holy Ghost, because the Father has sought us out and taught us how to worship him. It is a worship which is not outward, but of the inner man, and occupies not hand, eye, and foot, but heart and soul and spirit: and it is a worship which is not professional and formal, but real, hearty, earnest, and so acceptable before God.” Charles H. Spurgeon (1834-1892, English Baptist Minister, and Pastor of Metropolitan Tabernacle of London)

Mother’s Day Drive-Through Parade
8:45-9:15 AM, May 10, 2020
Since we will not gather publicly and corporately on Sunday, and therefore not have the opportunity to recognize our mothers in person, the ministry staff, and deacons of CHBC want to have a drive-through parade. Please drive through the north church parking lot between 8:45-9:15 AM, and we will be there to say hello, and give each mother a gift.

Sunday School
Sunday School is designed to gather with other Christians, not just study the Bible alone. If you live alone consider doing your Sunday School lesson with another believer or two in your home, and then worshiping together with us on Facebook Live. You could use Facetime, Zoom, or just the phone and do your Sunday School lesson together. However, you do Sunday School this week, use one of the free resources we are providing. The lessons below include the materials we normally use, as well as some additional resources to enhance your studies. Of course, you can use different ones throughout the week as well. Sunday School does not just have to happen on Sunday!
• New Sunday School Lesson: Unity and Diversity in the Local Church, Bible Studies Attachments: Unity and Diversity Study Guide; Unity and Diversity Study Handout

When Will the Church Meet at the Building Again?
This is a question we have been asking since March 16. Pastor Mark has prepared a letter to update you on the plans for May. You can see that letter on the CHBC Blog here: Blog, April 28, 2020.

Prayer
Psalm 51: 10-13 says, “Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. 11 Do not cast me away from Your presence and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. 12 Restore to me the joy of Your salvation and sustain me with a willing spirit. 13 Then I will teach transgressors Your ways, and sinners will be converted to You.” Seek the Lord fervently in prayer for our church, for our nation, and for the lost.
Give Online
Have you set up giving online? Have you had trouble scheduling your gifts to be recurring? Please reach out to the church office if you need help. Tithes and offerings can be made by mailing in your check, dropping off your tithe at the church office during normal office hours (8:30-4:30 Monday-Thursday, 8:30-12:30 Friday), or by giving online.

Quotes from Church History
Elisabeth Elliot on Prayer: “People who ski happen to enjoy skiing; they have time for skiing, can afford to ski, and are good at skiing. I have found that I often treat prayer as though it were a sport like skiing— something you do if you like it, something you do in your spare time, something you do if you can afford the trouble, something you do if you’re good at it. Otherwise, you do without it most of the time. When you get in a pinch you try it, and then you call an expert.” – Elisabeth Elliot (1926-2015, Missionary, Author, and Speaker)
